PAST

Sakura ran down the street wheezing, she had been running around like crazy trying to make everything special for Naruto. She went to the bakery and mett up with Chouji and the others. Together they walked to the Hyuuga mansion where Lord Hyuuga offered for the party to be. Next was to get Naruto, which was easy.

"NARUTO!" Sakura stood outside his door banging on it. Naruto wiped his eyes and ran outside, "What are you doing here?" Sakura grinned, "Come on! I know you love Ramen and so when Hinata told me that the Hyuuga chef had made some extra Ramen and was giving it away, I knew I had to call you." Naruto perked up, "Free Ramen!" Sakura nodded and in a flas Naruto grabbed her and dragged her to the Hyuuga mansion. The whole way Sakura laughed.

When they opened the door Naruto almost fell over in surprise when everyone shouted "SURPRISE!" But what really had Naruto in shock was that Chouji and hi group was there. He did double taked when he saw them there. Sakura meanwhile was on the floor laughing. Naruto's face was unforgettable!

Later, when it came time to cut the cake, Naruto was began to cry. Sakura looked down, feeling bad, maybe he was upset over the cake. She herself almost started to cry. But ti her surprise Naruto flung his arms around her and sobbed hard. "I saw this cake in a window once. You once told me that you were going to save your money to buy a yoyo that you really wanted. Yestaeday you said that you had only $7.00. That cake was worth $7.00." He pulled back and looked at her smiling. "You spent all your money on me, why?" Sakura smiled sadly, "So you'd know that someone cared." Hinata stepped forward, "We set up this thing so you'd know that we all cared." Gaara came forward with a nod, "We are friends now right? Friends fo things like this for one another!" Itachi came forward and chucked Naruto under his chin, "Remember what I said? Big brothers are always there for their younger brothers and sisters. Last I checked you were one of my younger brothers." Sasuke nodded, "Yea, what types of friends/ family would we be if we didn't celebrate your birthday with you?" Naruto stared at them and then smiled with tears streaming down his face. "Thank you…"

It was really late when the whole thing stopped so they all just slept over. It began to thunder in the middle of the night. And to everyones surprise Sakura got REALLY quiet. She was trembling and her ears went red. "Sakura..?" Sakura hunched to the floor her face going white. She mumbled something over and over. Lord Hyuuga ran out into the stormy weather himself and brang back a doctor who predicted that Sakura was very ill. "I don't know how it happened but she stained herself so much, she's going to need LOTS of rest and care. She'll be as weak as a newborn for awhile." Lord Hyuuga nodded, "Thank you doctor." He closed the door after the doctor to see Naruto pale and petrified, "It's all my fault, she ran around straining herself for me." He began to cry, "NO! I …..SAKURA!" He fell to his knees, Lord Hyuuga picked him up. Kiba came in very angry, "Don't say that! She did this because she wanted to! Don't blame yourself or you'll be huring her!" Naruto nodded, he did not want to hurt her! Lord Hyuuga sighed, "She'll be fine but she'll be weak for some time, so she'll need our help okay?" He really hoped he had explained it right, he was talking to a bunch of 5,6, and 10 yrs olds. They all nodded and took care of Sakura for that whole week with deadly focus. When she woke up from her trance she didn't even remember a thing. But they did, and from that day on they were very protective of her.
